You can use an ESC designed for 1/10th or larger that can handle a 10T motor normally. A 1/18th ESC is designed for a much smaller motor. The BEC voltage will still be normal however the draw of a 10T motor may be too much to properly supply the reciever with power so you may need a reciever pack. 10T is a hell of a lot of motor in a 1/12th. If you've never driven pan cars in the past I HIGHLY reccomend you start with a stock motor.

I replied to a couple of your posts, as well as your PM to me.
Since you are not considering racing, the car is a handful on any unprepared surface. Basically all my pan cars 1/10 or 1/12 tha are used exclusively for racing - my old rc10, tc3 or other transmission cars are run on unprepared surfaces.
